Friday. Leann. Chair 4.

3:05pm All set. She had a hard time with the bottom button hole. Said things, but I told her about the top one and how to hold it and she was fine.

4:41pm Just talked to doctor Ducker. He said transplant is usually two hours and the stay for a live donor is usually 3 days. Cadaver is usually 5 days.

I asked him to not hit my feet because of my ingrown toe nails.

Leann held my sites.

Friday. Heather. Chair 4.

3:09pm All set. Bottom went in fine. Top button hole Heather tried and tried till she made me sore. So she used a sharp needle.

I asked if the Doctor had the ability to find out what was going on with my donor since they were setting a date and I hadn't heard anything. He called Linda Wood when I gave him her phone number, and left a message.

Leann held. She is pleasantly surprised how quick my button holes are to hold.
